How a Simple Website Helped Moms Make Better Choices

A group of researchers created a special website to help pregnant women decide about a vaccine that protects both the mom and her baby from whooping cough. The website was designed to be user-friendly and provide clear information.

Study Objectives

The team aimed to evaluate the website's effectiveness by examining:

• Usage: How many women used the website
• Engagement: How long they spent on it
• Satisfaction: If they found it helpful

Study Design

The website was part of a larger study where:

• Some women had access to the website
• Others did not

Researchers compared the choices and health outcomes of both groups to assess the website's impact.

Purpose and Benefits

The website's goal is to:

• Provide accurate information
• Help women make informed decisions
• Consider personal values and beliefs

Whooping cough can be severe, especially for newborns, making this website potentially invaluable.

Preliminary Results

While the study is ongoing, initial findings suggest the website is a useful tool. It is:

• Simple
• Clear
• Potentially effective in increasing vaccine uptake
